2. Weld this plate centered, and square, about an inch from the top of the 1/2"x6" piece.
3. Flip the assembly over and weld the 4"x6" strip to the back, at the proper quick attach angle (a deflection of 2 1/4" over it's length)
4. Mount this to the tractor and mark where the hole at the bottom end needs to be torched
5. Torch the hole and clean it up.
6. Install the ball.
